Beta-microseminoprotein (MSP) is one of the major proteins secreted by the prostate, and its biological role in tumorigenesis of the prostate has been postulated. We assigned the human MSP gene (MSMB) to 10q11.2 with fluorescence in situ hybridization using a phage clone that has an MSP gene insert. Our mapping data shows that the gene is outside the previously identified LOH-regions (10p and 10q24-->qter) in prostate cancer cells and indicates that MSMB can be ruled out as a candidate for a tumor suppressor gene localized to those regions.

D017404 In Situ Hybridization, Fluorescence A type of IN SITU HYBRIDIZATION in which target sequences are stained with fluorescent dye so their location and size can be determined using fluorescence microscopy. This staining is sufficiently distinct that the hybridization signal can be seen both in metaphase spreads and in interphase nuclei.

D029584 Prostatic Secretory Proteins Proteins secreted by the prostate gland. The major secretory proteins from the human prostate gland include PROSTATE-SPECIFIC ANTIGEN, prostate-specific acid phosphatase, prostate-specific membrane antigen, and prostate-specific protein-94. Proteins, Prostatic Secretory,Secretory Proteins, Prostatic
D029589 Seminal Plasma Proteins Proteins found in SEMEN. Major seminal plasma proteins are secretory proteins from the male sex accessory glands, such as the SEMINAL VESICLES and the PROSTATE. They include the seminal vesicle-specific antigen, an ejaculate clotting protein; and the PROSTATE-SPECIFIC ANTIGEN, a protease and an esterase.
